Thread: Some BE questions
Being new to the profession I have ground through the first boxes to be 1/1/0/1. I have a few questions:
1. Do we get any XP from using a factory to make stuff?
2. What are the best things I can make and give to Tailors/Chefs for use to get XP?
Thanx in advance!

1) We get neither "creation" nor "usage" XP from stuff mage in a factory. Making stuff in a factory is just for making money.
2) Every chef/tailor I know wants stuff make in a factory. So in that sense there is no good items you can make for tailors or chefs. Tailors expecially want things in crates as theyusually need identical reinforced fiberplast panels for a garment. (Our goods can only go into the RFP's for tailor). For chef its not quite as bad but I believe the components still only go into chef sub-components. (Several of which require milk) Chefs also seem to be more rare than tailors. If you find one though I'd recommend going with Micro-nutrient supplement. It has the lowest relative meat requirement of any of our goods and while the duration bonus is fairly pathetic, at least its generally useful. (It extends the duration by a whole 10 seconds you say . . .) You might also want to think about stims/vitality packs. They are a huge waste of resources for XP unless your going doctor. However they at least can be sold. Especially once yopu get to Tissues 2/3 these items get quite sellable. (They are a resource waste because all of the sub-components give you medical crafting XP instead of be crafting XP. I maxed out medical crafting XP a LONG time ago as a result, still working on my BE crafting XP)
Thanx Mirrl!!!
That does help. Guess it is a hand craftin I go!!! WOO HOO!!!
